Hey deplorables your felon and chief wants 5 billion of taxpayer money to build his stupid wall. What happened to that big fat lie he told you about Mexico paying for it? You voted for him! Suckers!

Cheery picked data is what you are dealing in IB.It's my contention that it is WaPo -- and other lib-retarded jackasses in the lame-stream media -- that are cherry picking data.

The NASEM report found that, in the long run, the typical immigrant and that person's descendants will pay about $259,000 more in taxes than they receive in government benefits. First generations tend to be more costly to governments, the report says, in part because of the costs at state and local levels of educating these immigrants' children. Originally Posted by WTF
A 2011 report by FAIR, undocumented immigrants cost U.S. and state governments $113 billion a year in welfare programs. The report argues that immigrants use more welfare programs than people born in the United States.
Cheery picked data is what you are dealing in IB.More of the same. Fake news from IB. He doesn't know his stuff. It falls in line with his "truth isn't truth" and "alternative facts" brainwashing. He is like the Manchurian Candidate of Eccie

You told me after the Blue Wave ass whipping that it didn't matter. All the power was in the Senate. The House didn't mean shit. Trump couldn't get the votes because hes a moronic lawbreaker according to Rex Tillerson
If you knew anything about the Senate -- which they do teach in high school Civics -- you'd know that one needs 60 votes in the Senate to have the fucking Senate. So, your statement is far from honest. And once the wall is built, the American citizen will enjoy a windfall from the money saved by not spending it one illegals. Originally Posted by I B Hankering

Just a guess, but the reason in the differences between IB's source and WTF's source may be that the Heritage Foundation assumed illegals use benefits at close to the same levels as citizens and took into account the cost of educating U.S. citizens who are children of illegals. Cato didn't look at illegal immigrants per se, but rather poor non-citizens. My guess is that the truth lies somewhere in between the picture you get from reading the two articles.
IB, before taking a look at that I was sure illegal immigrants were big net contributors, in terms of taxation versus benefits. I'm not so sure now. Originally Posted by Tiny
